Chapter 3 The Ancient God of War (3) Chiyou's Hometown
When I woke up, the car was parked at the foot of a mountain and there were no people on the car. It was dark outside the window. It was already night. I stretched out and walked out of the car. I saw a group of people lit a bonfire and building a tent at the station. Assistant Yao handed me the roasted food. "Look at how sound you sleep, I can't bear to wake you up. Look, you're hungry!" He thanked me, I held the food in my hand and sat down next to the fire. When the others packed everything, they sat around the bonfire and ate something simple and started chatting. Jiang Jiayi came to Professor Hu. "Professor, on the way I came, I checked some legends about Chiyou with my tablet, saying that he had eight feet, three heads and six arms, copper heads and iron foreheads, and was invulnerable to swords and guns.
.Is this true?” Professor Hu used the branches to twig the branches that had been burnt in the fire, and replied with a smile, "That's just a man-made fabrication in later generations, don't take it seriously! The three-headed and six-armed saying is nothing more than a metaphor for his bravery." "If you girls have long hair and short knowledge, they are said to be legendary, and how much content can they have is credible." Ouyang Ze interrupted. "You talk too much, hate it!" Jiang Jiayi glared at Ouyang Ze dissatisfiedly, and saw Ouyang laughing awkwardly but not arguing with her anymore. Without further talk, we assigned a tent. The nine people set up three of us, three of us girls, and the others took turns to watch the night, and rested in a row, except Professor Hu.
The next day, we packed up the things and stored the car here. After taking all the items, we followed Brother You to the mountain. At first, some people walked out of the intestine path. The more they reached the back, it became more and more difficult. Everyone had no energy to chat, and they focused on their feet, fearing that they would fall off the cliff by accident. After walking for more than two hours, Brother You signaled us to stop in front of an axe-shaped cliff. Professor Hu stroked the sweat on his forehead and sighed, "Why is the steep cliff here used to be a tomb?" "When he goes west, he is Chi You's hometown. Could it be that he is still a family lover? Haha." Ouyang Ze quipped in an uncomfortable manner, Jiang Jiayi hated it.
He gave him a blank look. Jixiang, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly squatted down and looked for something in the weeds. The guide You Zhuo said coldly, "The ancients believed that after death, people's souls were immortal. They could turn into gods and avoid the suffering of reincarnation, so they were buried in a high place." Professor Hu nodded, "So that's it," Jixiang stood up and attached himself to the professor's ear and muttered something softly. In an instant, a hint of excitement flashed through the professor's eyes, and then ordered the two disciples to start opening the entrance. The girls of us couldn't help with physical work, so they had to hide aside from a distance for a while. They tinkered for most of the day. In the evening, they suddenly heard a "boom" sound, which exploded a hole that was one person high, and then they asked us to follow us.
I deliberately pretended to pick up the things I fell, walked at the end of the team, and pushed aside the weeds. An inconspicuous corner on the cliff was carved with a pattern that looked like a cow's head and a sheep's head. Just when I was puzzled, someone suddenly spoke behind me, which really scared me, "That's the cow's head totem of the Chiyou clan," I turned around and looked, and I didn't know when You Zhu stepped behind me. Is this guy walking without a sound? "Oh" I pretended to follow the team as if nothing had happened. The bull's head totem? Professor Hu was so excited about this? A strange feeling arose in his heart, and he felt that the professor seemed to be hiding something from us.
The tomb passage is not as narrow as I imagined, but the walls are too simple and not as luxurious as some novels and movies. I think it is true that in ancient times, humans could have clothes to cover their bodies, and how could they get the magnificent decoration? Walking forward carefully, Luo Hao made marks on the wall where we passed from time to time to avoid losing direction inside. After walking for a long time, there was no light at the entrance. Suddenly, the fork in the road appeared in front of him and did not dare to move forward. He stopped and waited for the professor to give the call.
"It is said that after the Pangu family became immortal, its body organs turned into sun, moon, stars, four poles, five mountains, rivers, lakes, and even all living things. Among them, the two gods of sun, moon and moon are transformed by his eyes. The sun is left and the moon is right, and it symbolizes yin and yang. Therefore, the custom of men and women is left and right is spread among the people." After that, the professor took the lead in walking towards the tomb on the right. "Since that is the case, yang is left, why should the professor go to the right?" Zheng Jiayi followed like a student who listened carefully. "Chiyou was in the Five Emperors period, and at that time the society was
The matriarchal clan is the matriarchal clan, and women are respected, so the teacher felt that the tomb passage on the right was the right choice to the main tomb chamber." Luo Hao added on the side. "Since it is a matriarchal society, how could there be Chiyou? Huangdi and others are all chiefs and leaders of the tribe. Isn't this a contradiction?" As he walked forward, Jiang Jiayi still asked without shame. "You don't understand this, right?" Ouyang Ze said while prideing on Jiang Jiayi's shoulder. "There is nothing wrong with Huangdi being a matriarchal clan before. There is an old saying that 'The son knows his mother's
I don't know that their father is in the transitional stage of turning to the patriarchal clan and not completely overthrowing the matriarchal clan. He has only deprived the regime of power, but his thoughts and customs are still in the old state." "Get out" Jiang Jiayi kicked Ouyang Ze's lower body angrily. If he hadn't been avoiding fast, his future happiness would have been explained like this. "If you dare to extend your hand in the future, believe it or not, I will let you go with it." Jiang Jiayi clenched her fists at Ouyang Ze, and the latter smiled like a scoundrel and took a surrender posture.
I touched the murals on the wall of the tomb passage. The rough engravings all reflected the backwardness of human society at that time. The human figures seemed to be kneeling down and worshiping something. It must be some kind of sacrificial activity at that time.
